Although probably not a consideration for most files, it would also
seem to me to be that there would be a big difference between
stream-numbers. That is, 1-mono, 2-stereo, all the way up to 5.1
(and beyond?)  While I doubt you'll have many surround-sound Vorbis
files laying about, it would seem logical to me that a single-stream
(mono) file would require much less CPU-juice than a 6-stream
monster... not that I've gone and done any proper tests, mind you,
like another poster.  :)
